Traditional milestones

Health and well-being pre and postnatal

Ancient scriptures extol the profound significance of the delicate processes of conception, pregnancy, and the spiritual evolution of a soul within the mother's womb. Recognizing the intricate dynamics at play, Chinmaya Mission has curated a unique program to help you understand the unique needs of your unborn child.
Led by trained facilitators, this program delves into the rites of passage (known as samskara), as well as the significance of sound, energy, mantras, emotions, and the mind - all deeply entrenched in Vedic wisdom.

The spirit of Advaita is not to keep away from anything, but to keep in tune with everything.
